🕊 Rest in eternal peace, Ms. Masu Usui (1910-2025).

Rest in peace Ms Masu Usui.

Japan’s oldest person.

Even if it was just for a few hours, it's good to hear she held the title of OLP in Japan – a very rare and honoured achievement.

Rest in peace, Masu Usui.

Indeed, would have been much more painful had she died a day earlier.
